3. Mabor Majak, Hamilton Southeastern: The 7-1 Majak showed tantalizing ability as a sophomore at HSE, playing his first full year of varsity basketball. His season averages of 8.0 points, 5.6 rebounds and 1.5 blocked shots per game might not jump off the page but he played for a team with a lot of other weapons and battled foul trouble at times. His current offers are Bradley and Miami of Ohio. Northwestern, Purdue and Xavier are among others showing interest.

4. Tre Coleman, Jeffersonville: The 6-5 Coleman showed potential as an inside-outside threat as a sophomore, doing much of his work around the basket. Indiana State, Nebraska and New Orleans have offered and several high-major programs are interested.

5. D’Andre Davis, Lawrence Central: The 6-5 Davis had a breakthrough sophomore season at Lawrence Central, leading the Bears in scoring (13.3 points per game) and was second in rebounding (5.0). He shot 36 percent from the 3-point line (26-for-73). Cleveland State and Southern Illinois have offered so far.

7. Johnell Davis, Gary 21st Century: The 6-3 Davis will be a name to watch as a junior. He averaged 15.5 points, 6.6 rebounds, 3.8 assists and 2.9 steals per game last season and is a two-year varsity starter. Kent State has offered.

8. Andrew Welage, Greensburg: The 6-6 Welage averaged 16.3 points, 5.2 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game as a sophomore, leading the Pirates to a 20-win season. His older brother, Ryan Welage, was a three-year standout at San Jose State who transferred to Xavier for a grad season.

9. Nijel Pack, Lawrence Central: The 6-foot Pack is one of the top point guard prospects in the class. Pack averaged 11.3 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game as a sophomore. Pack shot 46 percent from the 3-point line last season (39-for-84). His stock continues to rise this spring.

10. Kiyron Powell, Evansville Bosse: The 6-9 Powell could easily rise several notches on this list. He already has offers from Evansville, Miami (Ohio) and New Orleans and several high-major programs are interested. Powell blocked 203 shots last year for the Class 3A runner-up. He only took 80 shots (3.1 points per game) but averaged 8.9 rebounds.

11. Chris Grubbs, Hamilton Southeastern: The 6-5 Grubbs has been injured and unable to play this spring following track season but showed potential as a sophomore. He averaged 6.3 points and 3.1 rebounds per game on a team that had a lot of weapons.

12. Jaden Ivey, Mishawaka Marian: Ivey is a name to know. The 6-3 guard averaged 12.6 points, 2.6 assists and shot 43 percent from the 3-point line (46-for-108) as a sophomore. His mother, Niele Ivey, is assistant coach for the Notre Dame women’s team.

13. Julien Hunter, New Albany: The 6-3 Hunter did not get a ton of shots with IndyStar Mr. Basketball Romeo Langford and Indiana All-Star Sean East on the roster. But Hunter shot 79 percent from the field as a sophomore and averaged 6.6 points and 5.3 rebounds per game. His father, Chad Hunter, was New Albany’s all-time leading scorer prior to Langford.

15. Deontae Craig, Culver Academy: The 6-4 Craig was a key part of Culver Academy’s Class 3A state championship team as a sophomore, averaging 13.6 points and a team-leading 7.3 rebounds per game. Craig was Junior All-State in football so his future might be there.
